Throw my wishes in a wishing well,
tell myself I'm alright even though I'm not.
Said I'd be fine if I found someone to love,
that I'd be alright if she said she loved me.

My mistake, my only regret I hold dear,
how can I still reach for some kind of peace?
If the river runs out of water how will I,
satiate this growing need inside my heart?

There is no love but the one I dreamed,
it has all faded and I don't want to daydream.
Chocolate strawberries, coated cherries,
our love was one sweet like a dessert.

You cannot explain with mere words,
the way I felt about our cosmic ordeal.
It's true I know I got too attached,
in the end that is why I failed us both.

The only problem was me, always me,
I've known from the beginning of things.
I never wanted to hurt myself and your soul,
but I really got addicted to all of you.

And I know that still I won't learn it,
I'll fall for the next girl that makes me smile.
Be it for good or be it for bad, I know that,
without love I'll never feel complete.
